Front Fender Removal?
I have a leaky washer fluid reservoir and need to remove the passenger front fender to get to it. I searched and can't find a DIY for an F15, only older models. Likely the same, but wanted to check on here before I started poking and prodding.

Very much so! Are those still available to the public anywhere or are they all subscription based?

Actually, is there a higher res version? It's a bit fuzzy to read.

@M_Bimmer, I'm finally getting around to this project. Could the post the steps for the preliminary tasks too?

I had todo this couple weeks ago. It's annoying af. My sprayer motor was leaking. Had to do it twice to find the problem then Wait for new part. Just have to pop out rear 2/3 of the render trim. Then the wheel well covers. Then loosen side skirt. Then unscrew top and rear fender screws. The hardest part is the tabs on the fender trim. Everything else is pretty obvious and easy to find opening it up takes 30 minutes and putting it back takes about 15. Once you know how to do it.

I tackled this job a few days ago and it was NOT fun! Took probably 3-4 hours of straight work not including all the breaks, finding tools, etc... Replacing the pump fixed the leak issue though.
I wasn't able to figure out how to get the side skirt off but was able to access the two bolts on the bottom of the fender using some flexible extensions. |

Update to my situation. I was able to replace the pump without removing the quarter panel. I found a video on YouTube that was not in English, but they removed the trim under the doors, then undid the lower portion of the quarter panel and that provided enough room to swap the pump.
